Default boggin off first

getting off at a good start without bogging frustrates me. i always think somethings wrong. the way i'd describe the bog is not getting off with a clean pull. it seems like it takes a while for me to get off first. can anyone help with my problem. thanx.

drop the clutch at a higher rpm and feather the clutch if needed

I dunno what type of car you are talking about, or if it is manual or auto if it is auto then you will have to live with it if it is manual then launch above 3000 rpm and feather the throttle.
also if you have an catback that is to large in diamater then that could be the culprit also but it all depends on the car.

launch at above 3000 rpm or a lil higher.....always gives me a good launch...... ...........and if you have big wheels you may need to launch at 4000 or around that area....basically you have to find out what it takes to give your car a good start...its experimentation...

think the clutch might be slipping a bit?

there aint nuthin wrong with you clutch coz remember i drove it that day you asked me about the bog.... just try to blip the throttle a little before you let off, and maybe letting off the clutch smoothly will help also.
